I don't like looking at my own C++ code let alone other
peoples. At least with C, if the code compiles, its rarely
too blecherous for me to look at and usually trivial to fix
even if it isn't. For C++ code the flaws are often in the
design which makes it easier to rewrite from scratch than
it is to fix it.
